Howdy :)

I'm starting to experiment with leather BDSM gear, primarily right now with wrist cuffs. What kind of padding do you use? Foam? Fur? 

Im looking for a more industrial look than exposed sheepsfur gives, and while rabbit fur seems nice, im looking for just a bit more padding for comfort. Ive heard of issues with camping foam mats as they rot over time. as well.  

So looking for advice from the wise :)

Hello Shiny, 
I only have experience with furr on horse tack and there it was always a blessing if it was detachable. Sweat is not necessarily that easy to just brush out off that stuff. In BDSM I would assume that some bodily fluids could possibly touch the furr, so I personally would opt for something to attach and detattch, also as you can get a two in one in that case and can wash the furr, if needed. I would maybe go with a solution that includes velcro in the leather colour so the attachment loops are not too obvious and you can easily change the look. 

Paddingwise I can recommend, again for comfort and under the aspect of cleaning the cuffs/harness, 6mm EVA/ Plastazote and sheep/goat leather (0.8mm). In my experience sheep is incredibly smooth and has little to no cracks in itself. I buy mine from Italy (buyleatheronline) for as little as 24 euros, when I'm not too picky about the colour. It's very soft and a breezer to wipe down, when my dogs decided to take their collars out for a mudbath, plus it looks super shiny and luxurious. We got a lot of comments on the collars lately. 

If you combine that with a detachable furr I think there is no way to get it more comfortable. Hope my ideas helped a bit.
